Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York
Getting married to a pernament resident
I entered the county legally but i over stayed my turist visa for more than 6 months. I met someone and we would like to marry. He is a pernament resident and i wanted to know how long it would take for me to get authorization for work in US after we get married. I know that if he would apply for citizenship and get it that would take only 90 days.

Re: Getting married to a pernament resident
Dear Madam,
You would not be eligible for any immigration benefits right away by marrying your LPR spouse. Therefore, you cannot file for work authorization at this time. Once your spouse naturalizes you will also become immediately available for LPR status and thus work authorization
You should consult with an experienced immigration lawyer before proceeding and to find the most expedited method to achieve your goals.
